I thought I was sleep
jumped over the wall
ran through the woods
slid through the tunnel
ended at the slot machine
bet $100.00 dollars
requested a cab back to my hotel
just to realize I wasn’t there
oh Vegas, Oh Vegas
turn off the lights
it time to go sleep even if
its a quick nap…..
snooze I lost all my cash
it just a drop in the bucket
and this to will past…..
When I awaken…
I will fall back to sleep…..
the sun will rise
the sun will set
Oh Vegas, Oh Vegas
will I ever rest!
